 very year the Wide Horizons students plan, write, edit and publish student newsletters that are
distributed to our donors, partners and friends in Thailand and abroad. During the 2015-16 academic year, the students published one newsletter in English that they subsequently translated into Burmese.  The newsletters have been distributed and read all along the Thai-Burma border, as well as in.

The first video focuses on Seesar No No from Bago Division, who graduated from the program in 2012 and today works as Nutrition Coordinator for Thai Children's trust. The second video features Aung Pyi Moe, who graduated in 2014 and today also works as our part-time computer teacher on the weekends. During the week, he works as Operations Manager at Mae Tao Clinic. Enjoy! Every year, the Wide Horizons students write proposals for development projects in the Mae Sot area and if these are accepted, they implement the projects in cooperation with the communities. This year, the students wrote five proposals on behalf of five different migrant schools in Mae Sot. Four of these were accepted and are currently being implemented.The third of these projects to be concluded was a vegetable garden project for boarding students at Kwe Ka Baung school in Mae Sot. The purpose of this project is to provide healthy and nutritious food to boarding students at Kwe Ka Baung school by expanding the vegetable garden at the school and providing training in sustainable gardening practices to students and teachers.In addition to providing healthy, vitamin-rich vegetables as a stable part of the children’s daily diet, the project will also provide the students with vocational skills in sustainable gardening techniques, which will allow them to maintain the garden and potentially plant their own gardens in the future, without using chemical fertilizers or other toxins.
